Genial white-haired Irishman Caimh (pronounced 'Queeve') McDonnell has quickly established himself as one of the most amiable and friendly acts on the UK comedy circuit. Caimh is a regular headliner at most major UK venues, and his gentle yet incisive humour makes any audience feel involved whilst playing with their expectations - sucking them in with his chatty, playful stage presence before metaphorically slapping them in the face with an unexpected punchline. He has performed stand-up all over the world, including two shows at the world famous Edinburgh Festival.

Over the years award-winning guitar-playing comedian Rob Deering has cemented his reputation as one of the country’s finest stand ups by taking six solo shows to the Edinburgh Festival, headlining all the major comedy clubs throughout Britain, and taking part in Paramount Comedy's ‘Edinburgh and Beyond’ live show as well as his own ‘Charmageddon’ tour.
In 2008 Rob began hosting the monthly stand up and music night ‘Comedy Congregation’ with headliners including Russell Howard and Stewart Lee. Rob also hosts a monthly comedy music panel game ‘Beat This’ at London’s Leicester Square Theatre and is a regular at ‘Frank Skinner’s Credit Crunch Cabaret’.
‘As sharp and versatile as a Swiss Army knife, Rob Deering is one of the best performers currently on the circuit.’ - The Independent
‘Uses music to brilliantly accessorise his swipes at the innate gormlessness of contemporary culture.’ - The Guardian
